At Grounded Permaculture, our Permaculture Design Course (PDC) is more than a certification—it's a transformational journey into regenerative living. Designed for real lives and real impact, this hybrid course blends deep ecological knowledge with practical, hands-on learning.

Over 13 weeks of engaging online classes, you’ll dive into core permaculture principles—from climate and water systems to soil health, food production, and human-centered design. With flexible scheduling and live or recorded sessions, you’ll be supported every step of the way to build your own design project tailored to your goals and context.

The course culminates in a 4-day immersive experience at our living classroom in the Scenic Rim, Queensland. Here, theory meets practice through activities like seed saving, food forest creation, natural building, off-grid systems, and barefoot beekeeping. You’ll work alongside experienced facilitators and like-minded learners, all while connecting with nature in a tangible, empowering way.
